That's the attitude

. Plan on spending money twice.
Figure on 10 double shots per roast roughly, thats one day of espresso for me and no moka pots, lol.
I really don't think air poppers are much good with out mods to give some control over the roast. If you are handy this is one way but since you have good out door roasting weather you could also build a BBQ roaster.
For the spend and go sort of person I can only say Hottop "B", it is the best especially with a bean mass probe added. The Gene Cafe is by far the easiest I think to get very good roasts out of almost immediately for newbs, plus there are some mods to gain full control over the heater instead of just on and off. Down side is neither of these roasters are what I would call wife or wallet friendly.
So after the new espresso machine and the new grinder I might suggest a
stovetop popper to see if roasting is in your blood.
